No need to apologise, I'm confused most of the time and on this occasion perhaps I should've stepped away from the pc....

I should've put a in somewhere, but I was trembling in fear of the media students' ire! They might get batter me with their ipads, once they put down their lattes...

Ah, I've just got a crap sense of humour sometimes.

Haha I wouldn't dare hold an ipad and a latte at the same time, it'd end in tragedy. I'm kinda scared of touching an ipad actually, they look so delicate.

Well, whatever 'moobs' you.

Sorry, I thought I'd take the opportunity to write the only ever moobs pun you'll ever see.

Pretty sure this was quoted in the box set (they've quoted it somewhere in this campaign), so it might not be on the new single

I just remembered, they already made this video five months ago for The Descent, right down to the gratuitous shots of blondie and her violin.

Don't judge them too harshly, they can't help being shit.

Yep, when I first watched the new video I thought aha some of this footage looks rather familiar as I love that vid of The Descent!

I'm a fan of this type of vid containing performance footage interspersed with random bits, and don't mind sweaty James and his moobs, so it gets the thumbs-up from me!

Looks like they found an extra fiver down the sofa from the SKON budget for this. I thought it was just a segment of the Hammersmith documentary when I saw it posted on Facebook earlier.

Me too. Although i do like the inclusion of the pic of James with his dog Suki. Very cute. Plus there was no Wayne or violin players in that version. Which is a good thing!

It is basically isn't it? Apart from a few shots of clouds, and a blackboard and a lightbulb.

i think it's excellent because it is the only video from this album not blocked outside of the UK, thus it is the only one i have seen "officially".

I thought it could have a bunch of writers, musicians, artists doing there stuff in an old fashioned way. You know, writing with pens or quills. Some people would be typing on typewriters, and the musicians would be making an album in a studio with posters on the wall, graffitti, sheets of notes, lyrics and chords lying everywhere. Artists would be covered in paint, but their facial expressions would be of delight and wonder.
Occasionally, the video would jump to people using computers, and new technology. But these people wouldn't be happy. They would start to fade away. You could have the band playing at times, with them showing off old handwritten postcards, poems, letters and polaroids.
At the end, when the violins kick in, all the old fashioned characters would be outside, in nature. They would be rather scared, but excited. It's a war situation. As you start to hear "I won't betray your confidence..." they would look at each other nervously, hold up their weapon (Pen, paintbrush... drumstick) and rush towards the enemy.
And the video would end.

Also, I love Sean's little box in the homemade video!
